Did you know that medical research is happening all over the East Anglia region, not just in hospitals, though you probably won’t ever see it going on! But behind the scenes, researchers, scientists, doctors and nurses are working on important research to help sick people get better. To help you visualise the research stages involved, visit us during the Peterborough Stem Festival and take part in our giant puzzle to find out more, with places to visit, clues to solve and prizes for everyone!
And for older kids and teens – if you want a tougher challenge, why not have a go at our magnetic board and put the different stages of what happens in a clinical trial in the right order? (If you’re not sure, ask one of our friendly team for clues!)
